 Similar to #14477 -

 If I use `get_terms()` with both search and child_of, the filtered results
 are passed to `_get_term_children()`, and if those results don't include
 an uninterrupted heirarchy, it returns an empty array. Something like...


 {{{
 get_terms(array(
    'search'=>$search_term,
    'child_of'=>6
 ));
 }}}


 won't return grandchildren of 6 that match `$search_term`.
